The hotel is very close to Universal Studio and JR station. We went to the city and its only 20min by JR, very convenient. The room is big enough, we had a double bed and 2 single beds for 4 ppl. My kids had a fantastic trip!

I had a pleasant stay here. The room was clean and comfortable, and the staff were friendly and helpful throughout my visit. The room were big and the beds were awesome!

An excellent hotel with many little things that makes it so thoughtful. There’s some free food and snacks in the afternoon. With hotdogs and make your own pancake station! In the room, there’s a machine to provide some form of Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS) Technology for tired feet. Best of all, it’s so conveniently located next to Universal Studios Japan. I love it.
Response from Property: Thank you for your wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed your stay so much. We're particularly pleased you appreciated the thoughtful touches, like the free afternoon snacks with hotdogs and pancake station. It's wonderful to know the EMS machine for tired feet was a helpful addition to your stay. We're always looking for ways to enhance our guest experience, and feedback like yours is invaluable. The convenient location near Universal Studios Japan is a real plus, and we're glad you found that aspect helpful too. We hope to welcome you back again soon!

If you can, it’s not a bad idea to stay here for 2 nights. Good location to hit USJ hard and simply walk back to the hotel which is connected to the park. And then the following day you can take the ferry (also very nearby) to the Aquarium and Legoland while also exploring Tempozan Marketplace and the Ferris Wheel. Hotel breakfast is actually pretty yummy and they have free drinks and snacks (i.e hotdogs) at certain times during the afternoon.

Perfect location with the Universal City Station to connect you anywhere in Osaka, Universal Ferry which takes you to the Aquarium and of course Universal Studios next doors. Plenty of food options, even for vegetarians like myself and a lot to do for children, I would recommend for any family coming to Osaka. The rooms were clean and comfy and plenty of options at the breakfast buffet. They also offer free candy and ice cream in the afternoon but we were always out, so we never were able to try it. It was a great experience and my whole family enjoyed themselves.
Response from Property: Thank you for your wonderful review! We are thrilled to hear that you enjoyed our perfect location and found it convenient for exploring Osaka, including Universal Studios and the nearby attractions. It's great to know that our variety of food options catered to your vegetarian needs and that your family had plenty to do during your stay. We appreciate your kind words about the cleanliness and comfort of our rooms, as well as the breakfast buffet. We hope you get a chance to enjoy the free candy and ice cream on your next visit! Thank you for recommending us to other families, and we look forward to welcoming you back soon!

The location and breakfast is good. Given a room which have a connecting door to next room. Very bad sound proof. Can hear the noise from the next room and quite disturbing while sleep.
